Reflecting on Bambi and Renee's Journeys with Ashley and Christiana
“It is just a really beautiful demonstration of shame, elimination and, I'm telling you, too much information.”

They even touch on the anxiety healthcare workers face during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Throughout, Ashley and Christiana mix their insights with humor and empathy, making the conversation both engaging and relatable. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of inspiration, support, and a few laughs along the way.
